I have been looking forward to this day ever since we moved in. We had the two Port Orford Cedars by the front of the house taken out. They were way to close and blocked a lot of light. Along with that we had the huge tree that was also in the front yard limbed up some. We had that done for light reasons and because the branches were hanging down way to low.

This is what it looked like before we had the trees taken out.

The first tree we had cut about 14 feet up so it wouldn’t smash into our newly planted fruit trees.

After that he cut off the rest of it.

The second tree he had to trim up the limbs so they wouldn’t scrape on our house when it fell down. That is him up in the tree.

Then he tied off the tree and just when it was about ready to fall he got in his truck and pulled it over with that. Both trees went exactly where he said they would.

This is what it looks like now. Thankfully we still have our house intact! Now we just have a big mess to clean up.
